{'impeachment': [3, 0, 2, 2], 'chief justice': [14, 1, 3, 5], 'constitution': [39, 3, 11, 39], 'vice president': [3, 0, 1, 2]}

The correct answer is option 3. The Constitution does not provide a provision for the impeachment of a Governor.

Let`s examine the other options.

Option 1: The Chief Justice of India can be impeached as per the provisions of the Constitution. Impeachment of the Chief Justice of India requires a motion passed by a majority of the total membership of each house of Parliament, followed by an inquiry by a three-member committee consisting of a Supreme Court judge, a Chief Justice of a High Court, and a distinguished jurist.

Option 2: The Chief Justice of a High Court can be impeached as well. The procedure for impeachment is similar to that of the Chief Justice of India.

Option 4: The Vice President can be impeached as per Article 67 of the Constitution, which requires a resolution passed by a majority of the total membership of the Rajya Sabha.

In conclusion, options 1, 2, and 4 have provisions for impeachment, while option 3 does not.
